  • 2. I can't get my knickers in a twist about my age and ageing in an industry that caters to the ids of 14-year-olds.
  • 3. In the 1970s and 1980s there was so little decent fiction for young people but we're now in a golden age that shows no sign of fading. Philip Pullman J. K. Rowling Lemony Snicket are only three of the best known among a good number of equals.

2 Amazing

  • 2. Marriage is the most natural state of man and… the state in which you will find solid happiness.
  • 3. Since I wrote to you last we have got our chapel beautifully lighted with gas and have had our anniversary.

5 Architecture

  • 2. The way of architecture is the quiet voice that underlies it and has guided it from the beginning.
  • 3. People can inhabit anything. And they can be miserable in anything and ecstatic in anything. More and more I think that architecture has nothing to do with it. Of course that's both liberating and alarming.
